- * In C using IMPORT_SYMBOL, you must specify the declaration as the
- * second argument, for instance
- *
- * @code
- *   IMPORT_SYMBOL ( my_func, int my_func ( int arg ) );
- *   IMPORT_SYMBOL ( my_var, int my_var );

- *   void use_imports ( void ) {
- * 	if ( my_func && &my_var )
- * 	   my_var = my_func ( my_var );
- *   }
- * @endcode
- *
- * GCC considers a weak declaration to override a strong one no matter
- * which comes first, so it is safe to include a header file declaring
- * the imported symbol normally, but providing the declaration to
- * IMPORT_SYMBOL is still required.
- *
- * If no EXPORT_SYMBOL declaration exists for the imported symbol in
- * another file, the behavior will be most likely be identical to that
- * for an unavailable symbol.
